Purchasing the next iPhone through Apple

[dagored]

My contract is up 9/19. I will change to a 5 gig share plan and save $30 a month. Now, can I order from Apple and put the SIMS from my two iP6 into my two new 7 phones and continue as normal?

Actually they do, at least in the US. You can pay off your new phone over 24 months with no interest or carrier involvement, and this is separate from the Apple Upgrade Plan. This one doesn't include AC+.

It's also only available in-store I believe.

Really? When I look online I'm not seeing that option.

Yeah, it's only mentioned in a single sentence on the site I believe (looking for it now) but it really exists. My sister is currently paying off her 6S with this method.

Edit: Its mentioned on this page towards the bottom: http://www.apple.com/shop/iphone/iphone-upgrade-program

More ways to buy iPhone.
You can pay in full, choose carrier financing, or spread the cost with iPhone Installments.

iPhone Installments is what I'm referring to. It *is* only available at the physical stores though, but if you're near one just let an employee know you want the Installment plan and NOT the Upgrade plan.

Thanks. There's probably no issue with paying it off early?

Hopefully the SIM-free model will be available on release day.

Since I'm on primer on my dad line not mine should I order it via the apple online app for both orders of the phone

You probably can. I would do two things -- Call AT&T and see what they recommend. As well, review the previous threads, like https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/at-t-iphone-6s-6s-plus-pre-order-thread.1914959/ to see what other went through last year.

I don't think that's an issue. I believe they told my sister you could pay it off early with a credit card.

Does anyone know when you reserve a phone for pickup when pre-orders open does the website check to see if you are on contract or not ?
